Arrived today. My 5xGrandfather's British Naval Rocket Brigade patch. Flown in Space during @PolarisProgram's #PolarisDawn Sept. 10-15, 2024 to over 1,400 km & 75 orbits. Exposed to open Space during the World's first non-govt EVA. Thank you @rookisaacman & Casey Phillips!

One of the greatest days of my life was at the last space shuttle landing at @NASAKennedy. What an honor to be on the tarmac next to the orbiter! Thank you @NASA for everything you do for Planet Earth and Mankind. It's a privilege. 🇺🇸

Much as I love watching Emily Blunt, Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day is an AWFUL, POINTLESS, GOING NOWHERE, CRAP movie. Great direction but a rubbish script. Why bother❓ Two hours I could have spent in the garden. Avoid #DisclosureDay

I’m seeing terrible reviews. Is this movie as bad as everyone says?

If you plan on spending money to view “Disclosure Day” - please save your money folks! Almost unwatchable: I gave it a a 4 out of 10 for genre….

I just came across an interesting report from RAND: rand.org/pubs/research_repor… about astrography of cislunar space, which overlaps with some of my previous work. I have opinions, expressed at planet4589.org/space/gloss/d…

Me, forcing myself to sit through Disclosure Day.

Please accept an Astronaut’s welcome to Houston, Freddy! I’m so glad you are enjoying your time in the U.S.! 🚀

Honored to join @TimSheehyMT and members of our military community in Normandy last week for a commemorative D-Day jump. 82 years later, the courage and sacrifice of those who stormed the beaches and dropped into occupied France still inspire generations to take on hard missions in service of something greater than themselves.

Disclosure Day, the film traded quantum mechanics and cosmic philosophy for magic crystals and generic car chases. Spielberg hired ZERO scientists and it shows. It’s UFO folklore. It’s not deep unless you’re 8 yrs old. Don’t waste your money.

We’re getting new engines!! The thrust in the new Rolls Royce engines is similar, but they are 20-30% more fuel efficient, allowing for longer flights between refueling

Day 121, orbit 1873 — Sunday morning science with Sophie, episode 9: Hunting for sounds, part 2. Before anyone from the NASA engineering teams starts wondering why the TOCA is clicking while it’s switched off… I obviously could not turn it on just for the purpose of this video, so I recorded the sound later on during actual operations. It’s my absolute favourite sound onboard the Station! The sound consists of the checkout of several valves, which are used by this Total Organic Carbon Analyzer. This beautiful piece of engineering is used to test the quality of the Station's drinking water. 98% of the water onboard is recycled, isn’t it amazing? 🎥 @esa / @NASA #εpsilon • @esaspaceflight • @Space_Station • @NASAJohnson • @CNES

#Astronaut Reserve Training Block 3, Week 4 at @esa, Cologne. This week: What happens during launch and re-entry, the start of our #astronomy and #astrophysics course, and a tour of the European Astronaut Centre #gym. See the full weekly playlist at youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…

It's funny how Spielberg's Disclosure Day was almost as disappointing as Trump's Disclosure Day

Why has there been no mention of this from NASA? @NASAAdmin 'Dragon Enhanced Pallet Seat system' No images, no schematics. No mention of it being in-use or future implementation. I find this very discouraging when @NASA recently called for a "Shelter in Place" on the ISS.

ISSにはHTV-Xなど補給船を受け入れるための「CBM（Common Berthing Mechanism）」という結合機構があります。これはクルードラゴンなどが使う「ドッキング」とは異なり、ロボットアームで宇宙船をつかんでISSに取り付ける「バーシング」に使われる仕組みです。 今回は、「もしCBMに不具合が発生し、船外活動で修理しなければならなくなったら？」という想定のもと、関連ハードウェアを一つひとつ確認しました。 宇宙服を着た状態では、普段なら簡単な点検や部品交換も一気に難易度が上がります。実際にそんな事態が起きる可能性は高くありませんが、万が一に備えて準備を進めています。宇宙での作業は、何よりも「備え」が大切です。

🧑‍🚀🌖 La Dream Team pour Artemis IV ? Cette photo emblématique réunit 4 astronautes de la NASA issues de la promotion 2013. De gauche à droite : 🔹Nicole Aunapu Mann : Pilote d’essai, colonel des Marines, première femme amérindienne dans l’espace (commandante de Crew-5). 🔹 Jessica Meir : biologiste marine et physiologiste, a réalisé la première sortie extravéhiculaire 100 % féminine avec Christina Koch. 🔹 Anne McClain : pilote militaire, colonelle de l’US Army et pilote d’essai expérimentée. 🔹 Christina Koch : Ingénieure électrique, détentrice du record de durée en vol spatial pour une femme (328 jours), déjà sélectionnée pour Artemis II. Devant le module d’entraînement et le scaphandre EMU, elles incarnent la compétence, la détermination et le leadership au féminin que beaucoup rêveraient de voir réunis lors du retour de l’humanité sur la Lune ! 😍✨

Jour 120, orbite 1861 – Le saviez-vous ? Ma playlist officielle 🎶 est sur @DeezerFR, et elle est mise à jour régulièrement avec de nouveaux titres ! C’est une playlist volontairement éclectique, pensée pour accompagner chaque humeur et chaque moment de la mission : des morceaux rythmés pour le sport, des titres plus doux pour admirer la Terre par les hublots de la Cupola, des chansons qui réveillent des souvenirs… et même quelques surprises suggérées par mes proches. 🚀 Et puisque nous sommes un 13 du mois, flash-back sur les trois titres que j’écoutais dans la voiture qui m’emmenait vers le pas de tir, il y a exactement 4 mois aujourd’hui ! 1/ I’m good (Blue) – David Guetta, Bebe Rexha 2/ Happy – Pharrell Williams 3/ Valhalla Calling – VoicePlay, J. None Dites-moi en commentaire quel est votre titre préféré ! 🎥 @esa / @NASA #εpsilon • @Space_Station • @CNES
